Hm, I also wouldn't mind it if she went after the Turtles and Shredder. When she was first mutated, I was wondering if they were going to set her up where she wouldn't be able to distinguish her enemy from her allies since the last two things she saw before being mutated were Leo (a Turtle) and Shredder. I was kind of banking on something like that happening....but doesn't seem very likely now.

I would imagine that even if she would be free of Shredder, that she would still want some distance from Splinter and the turtles to figure things out and to forge her own identity and direction in life. Not something that is base on what Shredder believes or even Splinter's, but her own.

But of course, this is a children show so all that character arc stuff will happen off screen....goddamnit

Also I would agree that at her core, she would want to kill Shredder at all cost but how much can you stretch that out and of course you can't kill off Shredder or else there would be no show so I can see where the writers are coming from.
